England international, Jude Bellingham is set to become Real Madrid’s second-highest earner as his contract has been revealed according to SER Deportivos.
The report states that Bellingham will sign a six-year contract which sees him become the club’s second-highest earner behind Eden Hazard.
The former Birmingham player is expected to have a reported release clause of £875m, the equivalent of €1bn.
SER Deportivos further reported that in recent weeks the ‘operation’ of the transfer took a huge turn towards Real Madrid’s favor due to Liverpool backing out of the race.
The Spanish giants are likely to propose an initial £100m but do not anticipate any issues over agreeing on a final fee as Bellingham is expected to become a Real Madrid player by July.
Real Madrid chief scout Juni Calafat is thought to have met Bellingham’s father in London last month and is keen to see the midfielder lead Los Blancos into a new era alongside Aurelian Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga.
